Airbus A340-300

Code: 343

This four-engine long haul jet is the flagship of the SWISS fleet. With a range of about 11,000 km, the Airbus A340-300 serves all SWISS destinations around the world non-stop and with a full payload. The modernised version of the jet provides maximum comfort in SWISS Business thanks to the innovative pneumatic seat technology.

Special features

The A340-300 has the endurance of a marathon runner, and holds several long-distance records. The winglets on the tips of the wings reduce wing vibration, which saves a tremendous amount of kerosene. The winglets also give the Airbus an elegant appearance.

Airbus A330-300

Code:333

These aircraft can carry a maximum of 236 passengers. The capacity is divided into 183 Economy seats, 45 Business seats and 8 First-Class armchairs. Following the introduction of the A330-300, SWISS was the first airline in the world to offer First Class tickets on all long haul flights.

The innovative pneumatic seat technology provides maximum comfort in First and Business Class. The jet is powered by two Rolls-Royce 772B-EP (enhanced performance) engines.

Special features

The new SWISS Business seat on the A330-300 is probably the lightest of its kind. The air cushion alone makes the seat four kilograms lighter than the conventional version with foam padding. This weight reduction by itself will help SWISS to save over 650 tonnes of kerosene a year, and reduce the company's annual CO2 emissions by over 2000 tonnes.

Airbus A320-214

Code: 32S

For distances of up to 3600 km, SWISS uses the Airbus A320. It has between 136 and 168 seats and carries up to a maximum of 3 tonnes of cargo. The CFM56 engines are state-of-the-art in terms of environmental compatibility. SWISS uses this aircraft type within Europe and between Switzerland, Africa and the Near East.

Special features

In 2013, the first Airbus A320 was fitted with the so-called sharklets. The curved wing ends are reminiscent of a shark's fin, and make the aircraft more energy-efficient. Flying with sharklets saves fuel, reduces CO2 emissions and greatly reduces noise levels.
